You'll Pry My Keys Out of My Cold, Dead...

Raise prices, invade Iranistan, I don't care--but don't make us conserve gasoline. God, you know things are bad when Mr. "I pour a liter of Texas T over my cornflakes in the morning" Bush is advocating the filthy C-word.

New York Times: President Calls for Less Driving To Conserve Gas

Right, I like the idea of public transport, everybody leaving their gas guzzlers at home and skipping along to work holding hands. But...I hate public transport. I ride BART every day to work, and it's excruciating. It's slow and expensive and smelly people always sit down next to me. Until we get a cheap, efficient transit system, calling for conservation won't help--and I'm still driving my car to the corner store everytime I want milk and a packet of gum.
